Today, we're introducing @lockeai_inc, backed by @ycombinator. Locke is going to change the way companies and governments work together. Our first focus: building our own AI-native government affairs firm. Locke’s AI agents and in-house lobbyists help companies monitor regulations, lobby policymakers, and win government contracts faster and cheaper than ever before. Six weeks in, we've blown past a $500k annual revenue run rate and support clients across defense, healthcare, GovTech, and more. Government is the largest market in the world - with the worst front door. Locke will be the company to change that. Learn more at locke.inc or email [email protected] to get in touch.

🌕 @gru_space is building durable space habitats so humans can one day live on the Moon and Mars. Its first missions will mine lunar regolith to construct a long-term pressurized habitat on the Moon for commercial space tourism — a hotel on the Moon. Congrats on the launch @skyler_chan_! ycombinator.com/launches/P9g…

There are bps of growth yet to be unlocked in every crevice of the economy. We spoke to a handful of the companies applying emerging technologies to lesser known frontiers: → @playdate: bringing joy back to handheld hardware with their crank-operated console → @atomic_inc: creating physical goods at the speed of bits → Light: building infrastructure for a future powered by renewable energy → Katalyst: techwear that intensifies your workout 6x → Archistar: accelerating permitting by 50% with AI → @Lucid_Bots: drones for dangerous cleaning jobs → @sorcerer_earth: collecting 1000x more data points for accurate weather forecasting → Masquerade: redefining live theater with immersive technology

Introducing Odyssey—the largest and most performant protein language model ever created. Odyssey enables scientists and researchers to generate and edit proteins, the workhorses of all life on this planet, towards specific functional ends—scaled to over 102 billion parameters. We did it all with just a core team of 6 and an order of magnitude less funding than our next largest competitor. Here's how it works 🧵 (1/6)

🎈@sorcerer_earth (YC S24) builds weather balloons that can fly for over six months, reach previously inaccessible regions, and collect 1000x more data per dollar than current systems. Congrats on the launch, @_protopian, @maxmclau, and @big_veech! ycombinator.com/launches/LdU…

It's one thing to wield the data, but you have to make it LOOK good! Hear from NCEI's @jjrennie on the challenges that can arise just by making a single temperature map 👇

Many stories could be told from this image alone, but probably the one that people most latch onto is the different levels of investment in on-the-ground weather monitoring between wealthy and poor countries.
Fun little map of the weather stations (both active and historical) that are used as input to Berkeley Earth's land surface temperature analysis.

It may be too much to take in all at once, but h/t to @leonsimons for pointing me to NOAA ERSST V5 SST monthly data beginning 1854, current through March, 2024. I included the 50 year average for 1900-1949 for good measure. This really is the beginning of the end of everything.

Being able to write a WordPress plugin with your eyes closed is all well and good, but what are the *non-technical* skills a successful software engineer needs? @tindleaj gives some great tips! #startups #entrepreneurs #devops #engineer #technology medium.com/datadriveninvesto…

"the learning never stops, and it never gets any easier. Every time you master a difficult concept, you can be sure that another one is right around the corner."-Thanks, although I don't have your experience I couldn't agree more @tindleaj link.medium.com/2Vke9mk3US
